    You know how a control has a tag property, how can you make a another tag for that control. I want to store additional information for that control.

    You'd have to subclass the control which is not an easy thing to do. What kind of info do you want to store? Could you use the registry?

    I don't think tag property has a real meaning, if you want some extra data stored there why don't you just add up the strings with a delimeter and split up them on access.
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.
